Every night without fail, our new neighbors hold a vigil outside the D.C. jail where the rioters arrested for their actions on January 6 are held.

January 6 rioters have been held together in a segregated wing of the D.C. jail, which they came to call the “Patriot Pod.” They developed their own rituals and inside jokes and, over time, radicalized one another.
